Sat, 24 Jan 2009 03:31:47 GMT

It is possible to remove all the features but the ones the specific application uses. In other words, we are able to lock down our applications and only turn on the features we need. The reason to do this is to reduce the attack surface of the application as well as stay in total control all the way from the IIS and into the ASP.NET application."
